There are 4 clinical trials
Based on findings of the interim analysis of the ACTIVATE study showing 53% decrease of the incidence of all new infections with BCG vaccination, a new trial is designed aiming to validate if BCG can protect against COVID-19 (Corona Virus Disease-19).The aim of the study is to demonstrate in a double-blind, placebo-controlled approach if vaccination of participants susceptible to COVID-19 with BCG vaccine may modulate their disease susceptibility for COVID-19. This will be validated using both clinical and immunological criteria. At the same time, a sub-study will be conducted and the mechanism of benefit from BCG vaccination by assessing its effect on vascular endothelial function and mononuclear blood cells will be studied

We hypothesize that BCG vaccination might be a potent preventive measure against SARS-CoV-2 infection and/or may reduce disease severity in elderly people, who are known to be at increased risk of illness and death from SARS-CoV-2 infection. Therefore, we will in this placebo-controlled adaptive multi-centre randomized controlled trial evaluate the ability of BCG to reduce hospital admission and its efficacy to improve the clinical course of SARS-CoV-2 infection in elderly people((≥ 60 years of age).
In Mexico the total number of confirmed cases of COVID-19 is 232, 000 and 28,510 deaths. Health workers are at high risk of COVID-19 infection. Their absence from work dramatically limits the ability to contain the disease. There is currently no vaccine to prevent the disease. Since the introduction to the vaccination schedule of the Bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG) live attenuated vaccine directed towards tuberculosis prevention, a decrease in infant mortality has been reported, not related only to tuberculosis. BCG vaccine has been hypothesized to have a non-specific role towards other unrelated pathogens such as viruses that cause airway disease, with reduced morbidity and mortality. In murine as well as in human models it has been shown to decrease the incidence of acute respiratory influenza infections. Likewise, in countries with a high endemicity for tuberculosis, the BCG vaccine reduces the incidence of respiratory infections by up to 80% . In healthy subjects, the BCG vaccine increases the production of proinflammatory cytokines in monocytes. Likewise, it increases the epigenetic response, causing an increase in the transcription of genes important in the antimicrobial response, as well as an improvement in cellular function. This is the first national clinical trial to evaluate prospectively the effect that the BCG vaccine offers towards the prevention and reduction of severity in cases of COVID-19.

From the first case to the present day, the COVID-19 epidemic has been identified in 185 countries, with the notification of 2,666,154 cases and 186,144 deaths. In Brazil, more than 45,757 cases and 2,906 confirmed deaths by COVID-19 have been confirmed (Visualized on Apr 23 2020). In our country, to date, testing for COVID-19 occurs only in severe cases and few centers offer the service to health care workers, a population at high risk of infection. BCG is a vaccine produced from a live attenuated strain derived from a Mycobacterium bovis isolate and is widely used worldwide as a tuberculosis (TB) vaccine, but there are studies demonstrating non-specific immunotherapeutic mechanisms of this vaccine that signal a possible relationship with the lowest morbidity and mortality associated with COVID-19 infections worldwide. The present study aims to analyze the role of BCG in the prevention of SARS-CoV-2 infection and also in the occurrence of severe forms of COVID-19 in addition to evaluating the immune response mediated by this vaccine in voluntary health care workers.
Description: It is estimated that it will take 500 individuals in each of the comparison groups to ensure a statistical power of 85% for the detection of a risk difference of 5%, considering that the control group will have an accumulated incidence of SARS-CoV-2 infection of 10% after 6 months of follow-up, for a type I error of 5%.
Measure: Compare the cumulative incidence of SARS-CoV-2 infection Time: 12 monthsDescription: With 500 individuals in each of the comparison groups the study will have a statistical power of approximately 75% for the detection of a risk difference of 2%, considering that the control group will have an accumulated incidence of more severe forms of COVID-19 of 2.5% after 6 months of follow-up, for a type I error of 5%.
Measure: Compare the cumulative incidence of severe forms of COVID-19 Time: 12 monthsDescription: SARS-CoV2 infection is estimated to occur in approximately 10% of BCG-vaccinated healthcare professionals (experimental group) and in 30% of non-BCG-vaccinated healthcare professionals (placebo group) In this scenario, with the bearing of 500 health professionals in each arm, SARS-CoV2 infection is expected to be detected in 50 BCG-vaccinated professionals and 150 professionals not vaccinated with BCG. For each subgroup (vaccinated and not vaccinated with BCG) it will be possible to identify the predictive biomarkers of infection by comparing infected professionals with those who were not infected with SARS-CoV2.
